# New to growing seedlings indoors and I’m trying to figure out when I…

_Posted by Thecuteducky on 2025-07-24_

New to growing seedlings indoors and I’m trying to figure out when I need to transplant my cherry tomato into a bigger container. It’s in a 1inch cell tray at the moment and I read somewhere that I have to wait for the second set of true leaves so if anyone knows and has any tips please advise. Also my picture is just me wanting to confirm with someone that the purple circled leaves are the first true leaves and the orange circled one will probably be the second set of leaves. Is that correct? Thanks 😬

Yes you are correct about the leaves. I'm not a expert but personally if they were mine I'd go ahead and repot them but you have to harden them off a little at a time if your moving them outside

Thank you I will be repotting meow. They will still be inside for a while until the heat calms down in Arizona otherwise I don’t think they would make it but they should be ready by the time it cools down I hope. 😁
